Why did black people abandon house/EDM music?

[Colin X]

Was there a trend that we went to after that?



Like blacks people created it, it took up shop in Europe and grew and evolved into what it is now.


What caused us to be like “we done with that”?

House/edm was already niche to begin with. Then crackers took over and turned tht shyt into cracker music.

A lot of reasons. A shift in Musical Direction a shift in culture the platform ratio of gangster rap just a few.

Some people here are old enough to remember they were something called hip house at one time. A lot of mainstream rap artist with doing house and rap songs

 

[Warren Moon]

They have a black house festival every year in Atlanta. It’s a great time

nikkas don’t get paid, but cacs do their watered down version of our music and do.

Whites did covers of black rock songs to “clean up” the songs and they got paid from them.. pushed us out

Also, y’all know that “tropical house” is actually gentrified dancehall right?

you haveto look at

Chicago,detroit,baltimore new jersey etc

Still variations going strong there, as far as edm is concerned

 

[Uitomy]

House is not trendy so I guess that’s why

 

[IllmaticDelta]

@IllmaticDelta

the answer is @Colin X , they never did. Black EDM was always regional (detroit, chicago, NYC-New Jersey) and that's where it mainly stayed and flourished

Basically the big 4



But yeah I miss house especially when they were lacing the tracks with part time church singers.
